結束一台獨大：去中心化社群媒體的內容審核難題

Facebook、Instagram、Twitter等社群媒體一台獨大。有人詬病它們監督不力，讓虛假資訊和極端思想滿天飛，亦有人不滿它們審查言論和無故封鎖帳號。有人因此轉投MeWe等另類中心化平台，有些人則希望結束一台專政，建設去中心化平台。

With those powerful pre-built model or AI API, we can build a very powerful virtual assistant with the combination and integration of all AWS AI/ML services with OpenAI API or Hugging Face pre-trained model. For my use case, I hope my students learn and use AI but I do want to have certain control and monitoring. So, we want to make it fun and powerful for my students.
